1
00:00:08,020 --> 00:00:12,851
I'm here to talk about democracy.

2
00:00:12,951 --> 00:00:14,484
But the real one.

3
00:00:14,584 --> 00:00:17,537
The one that doesn't exist at all !

4
00:00:17,637 --> 00:00:21,971
The one that, I think, would get us out of this mess.

5
00:00:22,071 --> 00:00:27,994
I am a teacher in Marseille, and in 2005, I started to exist.

6
00:00:28,094 --> 00:00:33,003
I woke up, politically speaking, thanks to a public debate in France.

7
00:00:33,103 --> 00:00:36,906
A referendum about a so-called "constitution" (NT: a European treaty).

8
00:00:37,006 --> 00:00:42,004
While reading it, I became angry, I found it dangerous.

9
00:00:42,104 --> 00:00:46,042
I wrote a response of about ten pages, with notes.

10
00:00:46,142 --> 00:00:48,994
Then, I published it on my website.

11
00:00:49,094 --> 00:00:54,075
Sent it to my tiny contact list, as a last-ditch attempt.

12
00:00:54,175 --> 00:00:57,914
Then, something happened and changed my life.

13
00:00:59,996 --> 00:01:01,979
People grabbed onto it, it matched something they missed.

14
00:01:02,079 --> 00:01:07,014
For months, I spent my nights trying to reply to them.

15
00:01:07,114 --> 00:01:10,619
Particularly to those who didn't like me.

16
00:01:10,719 --> 00:01:13,910
Trying to prove them wrong.

17
00:01:14,010 --> 00:01:21,625
Little by little, newspapers took on the topic, then TV, radio…

18
00:01:21,725 --> 00:01:23,999
They visited me at home.

19
00:01:24,099 --> 00:01:27,547
The site's visit counter turned like a fan!

20
00:01:27,647 --> 00:01:31,933
40,000 visits per day! 12,000 emails in 2 months.

21
00:01:32,033 --> 00:01:35,907
Now I realize that it was the eyes

22
00:01:36,007 --> 00:01:39,024
of others staring at me that changed me.

23
00:01:39,124 --> 00:01:41,737
Giving me incredible strength!

24
00:01:42,001 --> 00:01:47,967
First, positive looks expecting me not to let them down.

25
00:01:48,067 --> 00:01:50,563
Then, those who didn't like me, at all !

26
00:01:50,663 --> 00:01:55,260
Suspicious. Calling me an impostor, a bum, illegitimate.

27
00:01:55,360 --> 00:01:57,456
I wanted to prove them wrong.

28
00:01:57,556 --> 00:02:04,033
All those eyes passed onto me an incredible energy.

29
00:02:04,133 --> 00:02:07,077
It still propels me today.

30
00:02:07,177 --> 00:02:13,923
I discovered that this was an old issue. Athenians called it "verecunia".

31
00:02:14,023 --> 00:02:17,969
A very interesting and essential concept.

32
00:02:18,069 --> 00:02:23,660
For the Athenians, a good citizen was someone

33
00:02:23,660 --> 00:02:27,527
sensitive to what others thought about him.

34
00:02:27,527 --> 00:02:28,958
It pushed them to virtue.

35
00:02:29,058 --> 00:02:34,033
When others were counting on them, rewarding them by their gaze,

36
00:02:34,133 --> 00:02:38,004
it gave them the will to be virtuous.

37
00:02:38,104 --> 00:02:42,014
And, when they sensed a reproving stare,

38
00:02:42,114 --> 00:02:47,015
it encouraged them to stay within the path of virtue.

39
00:02:47,115 --> 00:02:49,289
Indeed, it works!

40
00:02:49,389 --> 00:02:53,315
People who have "verecunia", are more virtuous.

41
00:02:53,415 --> 00:02:55,999
Conversely, those who don't, are very dangerous.

42
00:02:56,099 --> 00:02:58,827
To the point… At that brutal age…

43
00:02:58,927 --> 00:03:01,817
Well, no need to put them to death, but…

44
00:03:01,917 --> 00:03:05,198
we could avoid giving responsibilities to the dangerous.

45
00:03:05,298 --> 00:03:09,479
Since 2005, I have striven working hard for… For what?

46
00:03:09,579 --> 00:03:13,652
First, I've tried to understand the cause of social injustices.

47
00:03:13,752 --> 00:03:16,680
I've tried to find out the main cause.

48
00:03:16,780 --> 00:03:22,658
Then, I've discovered, with wonder, the brilliant ideas that founded the Athenian democracy.

49
00:03:22,758 --> 00:03:24,732
A real democracy.

50
00:03:24,832 --> 00:03:28,395
I've analyzed many important words and turned them right side up,

51
00:03:28,495 --> 00:03:31,945
They've been turned upside down for at least 200 years.

52
00:03:32,045 --> 00:03:36,689
Finally, I've tried to imagine this work in progress.

53
00:03:36,789 --> 00:03:38,642
I don't own the truth.

54
00:03:38,742 --> 00:03:43,583
I'm polishing, building up and strenghening an idea.

55
00:03:43,683 --> 00:03:48,829
I try to think of institutions, good ones,

56
00:03:48,929 --> 00:03:53,031
which would protect us all from abuses of power.

57
00:03:53,131 --> 00:03:56,577
I rely on good institutions to push ourselves to virtue.

58
00:03:56,677 --> 00:03:59,344
I don't count on virtuous citizens.

59
00:03:59,444 --> 00:04:01,974
We all have good and bad halves.

60
00:04:02,074 --> 00:04:05,689
But, good institutions could lead us to virtue.

61
00:04:05,789 --> 00:04:09,013
The same way they can pull us

62
00:04:09,113 --> 00:04:14,391
away from the general interest and the common good, like today.

63
00:04:15,027 --> 00:04:22,044
To do so, I use a great method, recommended by an old doctor:

64
00:04:22,144 --> 00:04:24,700
Herodotus (NT: Hippocrates, mistake).

65
00:04:24,800 --> 00:04:27,346
Who was seeking the cause of causes.

66
00:04:27,446 --> 00:04:30,374
I use this all the time.

67
00:04:30,474 --> 00:04:32,440
Why? He said:

68
00:04:32,540 --> 00:04:35,315
For a problem, an illness,

69
00:04:35,415 --> 00:04:38,001
don't fight its effects! Obviously.

70
00:04:38,101 --> 00:04:39,993
You won't fix anything.

71
00:04:40,093 --> 00:04:42,292
Neither its causes!

72
00:04:42,392 --> 00:04:44,967
Too many factors. It's not that!

73
00:04:45,067 --> 00:04:48,771
Among all causes: seek the main cause.

74
00:04:48,871 --> 00:04:53,979
At least a decisive one, one that determines the other causes.

75
00:04:54,079 --> 00:04:56,026
It's the one we need!

76
00:04:56,126 --> 00:04:57,704
The one I'm looking for.

77
00:04:58,497 --> 00:05:00,388
So.

78
00:05:00,488 --> 00:05:05,315
All my activist friends, that I've met in politics,

79
00:05:05,415 --> 00:05:11,705
with whom I've shared battles (of course), are endlessly struggling.

80
00:05:11,805 --> 00:05:20,125
I drew a tree showing the range of topics on which people resist.

81
00:05:20,225 --> 00:05:26,800
I'm surprised to see all these fighters focusing on… very important things...

82
00:05:26,900 --> 00:05:30,563
But things that are only consequences.

83
00:05:30,663 --> 00:05:35,027
I don't think anyone is trying to understand the cause of all of this!

84
00:05:35,127 --> 00:05:38,473
I think I found… I could be wrong.

85
00:05:38,573 --> 00:05:44,958
I think I found a common cause to all that impotence, and injustice

86
00:05:45,058 --> 00:05:48,956
...where social injustice starts…

87
00:05:49,056 --> 00:05:53,302
I think it's the lack of control over the political power,

88
00:05:53,402 --> 00:05:56,779
that produces the impotence in the people.

89
00:05:56,879 --> 00:06:00,678
Social injustices are there because "normal" people,

90
00:06:00,778 --> 00:06:03,527
don't have the power to resist.

91
00:06:03,627 --> 00:06:07,315
All the strikers I know, these activists,

92
00:06:07,454 --> 00:06:09,829
spend their entire lives struggling…

93
00:06:09,929 --> 00:06:12,579
They don't change a thing!

94
00:06:12,679 --> 00:06:13,921
How come?

95
00:06:14,021 --> 00:06:18,619
Because their political impotence prevents them from taking action.

96
00:06:18,719 --> 00:06:22,140
Where does this impotence come from?

97
00:06:22,240 --> 00:06:27,260
My analysis is that it comes from the constitution.

98
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:30,005
The text that makes elected officials

99
00:06:30,105 --> 00:06:32,955
not liable to annulment nor accountable.

100
00:06:33,055 --> 00:06:36,002
We can't choose our candidates.

101
00:06:36,102 --> 00:06:38,811
There are no referendum based on popular initiative.

102
00:06:38,911 --> 00:06:42,472
We can't decide anything through personal initiative.

103
00:06:42,572 --> 00:06:46,315
We let money become privatized because the constitution

104
00:06:46,415 --> 00:06:48,672
doesn't require it to be public.

105
00:06:48,772 --> 00:06:51,185
Etc... No time for a detailed list.

106
00:06:51,285 --> 00:06:54,856
But, in the constitution, all our impotences are planned out.

107
00:06:54,956 --> 00:06:57,357
It didn't happen by magic ! It's written.

108
00:06:57,457 --> 00:07:00,102
Keep considering the root…

109
00:07:00,202 --> 00:07:05,970
Why do all constitutions anticipate people's impotence? Worldwide.

110
00:07:06,070 --> 00:07:08,399
It isn't a conspiracy, it can't be,

111
00:07:08,499 --> 00:07:12,364
not every time, in every country, it's not that!

112
00:07:12,464 --> 00:07:16,696
A universal process must have a universal cause.

113
00:07:16,796 --> 00:07:20,907
It seems to me that what makes bad constitutions,

114
00:07:21,007 --> 00:07:23,905
since they plan our powerlessness, instead of our power.

115
00:07:24,005 --> 00:07:29,046
Since they do not protect us against abuse of power, it prophesizes our impotence.

116
00:07:29,146 --> 00:07:32,541
I think it's because those who write the constitutions,

117
00:07:32,641 --> 00:07:34,387
the authors,

118
00:07:34,487 --> 00:07:39,906
they have a self-interest in not coming up with a good constitution.

119
00:07:40,006 --> 00:07:42,662
Not mentioning the people's power.

120
00:07:42,762 --> 00:07:46,893
They are judge and defendant, they are professional politicians.

121
00:07:46,993 --> 00:07:49,659
This gets closer to the cause of causes.

122
00:07:49,764 --> 00:07:51,991
It's not their fault, they aren't crooked.

123
00:07:52,091 --> 00:07:54,002
It's us who let them write it !

124
00:07:54,102 --> 00:07:57,042
To measure the importance of this mistake,

125
00:07:57,142 --> 00:08:00,036
let's remember what a constitution stands for.

126
00:08:00,136 --> 00:08:05,256
People, us, for about 2500 years,

127
00:08:05,356 --> 00:08:09,036
have needed to put representatives above us.

128
00:08:09,136 --> 00:08:13,303
In order to produce and enforce the law,

129
00:08:13,403 --> 00:08:18,045
that protects us from the arbitrary rule of the powerful.

130
00:08:18,145 --> 00:08:21,903
So, these people are very useful, of course !

131
00:08:22,003 --> 00:08:25,160
They establish the laws that bring peace to society.

132
00:08:25,260 --> 00:08:27,902
But, they are also very dangerous !

133
00:08:28,002 --> 00:08:31,610
If they start to abuse their power, serving the interests of a selected few,

134
00:08:31,710 --> 00:08:33,909
instead of the common interest…

135
00:08:34,009 --> 00:08:37,100
If they abuse power by going mad,

136
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:39,907
power drives them mad, systematically.

137
00:08:40,007 --> 00:08:44,787
Uh, yes, we have known that for 2500 years ! Power drives people mad.

138
00:08:44,887 --> 00:08:50,560
All powers tend towards abuse.

139
00:08:50,660 --> 00:08:52,970
Always ! (said Montesquieu).

140
00:08:53,070 --> 00:08:56,028
Like laws of physics, implacable.

141
00:08:56,128 --> 00:09:00,033
And, there is a brilliant idea to protect us from it:

142
00:09:00,133 --> 00:09:01,986
the constitution.

143
00:09:02,086 --> 00:09:06,300
So, what is it ? It's a text, standing above powers.

144
00:09:06,400 --> 00:09:10,570
Not to organize powers, no need for that, at all !

145
00:09:10,670 --> 00:09:15,984
Any citizen should know that its purpose is to weaken the powers.

146
00:09:16,084 --> 00:09:18,905
To worry the powers.

147
00:09:19,005 --> 00:09:24,440
In order to protect us ! Against abuse of power.

148
00:09:24,540 --> 00:09:27,651
Wait…

149
00:09:27,751 --> 00:09:32,227
If representatives must fear the constitution…

150
00:09:32,327 --> 00:09:35,040
They mustn't write it themselves !

151
00:09:35,140 --> 00:09:39,691
If they do, they will establish their power and our powerlessness.

152
00:09:39,791 --> 00:09:42,315
A child understands that.

153
00:09:42,415 --> 00:09:44,755
The main and essential idea is:

154
00:09:44,855 --> 00:09:48,110
men of power mustn't write the rules of power.

155
00:09:48,210 --> 00:09:52,725
Don't wait for them to renounce their power, they won't, never.

156
00:09:52,825 --> 00:09:55,492
The solution won't come from them, but from us.

157
00:09:55,592 --> 00:09:58,008
We must forbid them to write it.

158
00:09:58,108 --> 00:10:01,592
I think this is the essential idea that we lack.

159
00:10:01,692 --> 00:10:05,680
So, in the scuffle between normal people and

160
00:10:05,780 --> 00:10:09,279
those who wield power at the moment. There are…

161
00:10:09,379 --> 00:10:12,450
Oh, there is a timer there, good !

162
00:10:12,550 --> 00:10:15,379
There are… words turned upside down.

163
00:10:15,479 --> 00:10:18,369
First, I'm not a citizen.

164
00:10:18,469 --> 00:10:22,902
A citizen is autonomous, voting his own laws.

165
00:10:23,002 --> 00:10:26,998
I am just a voter, I'm heteronomous.

166
00:10:27,098 --> 00:10:30,509
I'm under laws written by someone else.

167
00:10:30,609 --> 00:10:34,352
"Citizens": it's taking us in with fine words.

168
00:10:34,452 --> 00:10:37,524
We brag about it but we are nothing !

169
00:10:37,624 --> 00:10:41,929
What do we have in this so-called "democracy" ?

170
00:10:42,029 --> 00:10:43,808
What rights ?

171
00:10:43,908 --> 00:10:48,810
Take your pick of political masters who decide everything for us.

172
00:10:48,910 --> 00:10:53,325
Selected from people we didn't even choose, the richest choose them.

173
00:10:53,425 --> 00:10:57,002
And, when they eventually betray us to the marrow,

174
00:10:57,102 --> 00:10:59,342
there is no way to resist !

175
00:10:59,442 --> 00:11:01,782
Well, we have freedom of speech, right.

176
00:11:01,882 --> 00:11:05,343
But absolutely no power of constraint.

177
00:11:05,443 --> 00:11:09,186
We can jabber, if it has no effect, it's allowed.

178
00:11:09,286 --> 00:11:11,904
If it changes anything, it's a massacre.

179
00:11:12,004 --> 00:11:15,225
We call this democracy !? It's our fault !

180
00:11:15,325 --> 00:11:19,313
We should boycott these trojan words,

181
00:11:19,413 --> 00:11:23,705
refuse to call democracy what is in fact its strict opposite.

182
00:11:23,805 --> 00:11:27,831
We feed our political impotence by allowing ourselves to call

183
00:11:27,931 --> 00:11:33,283
democracy something that is the very negation of our rights.

184
00:11:33,383 --> 00:11:38,568
When we call it democracy, we can't even express the solution.

185
00:11:38,668 --> 00:11:41,680
We need democracy, but we can't express it.

186
00:11:41,780 --> 00:11:45,015
Since the word is taken hostage by its opposite.

187
00:11:45,115 --> 00:11:47,994
Reversing the words is genius ! Big Brother, absolutely !

188
00:11:48,094 --> 00:11:51,379
It didn't happen by accident.

189
00:11:51,479 --> 00:11:54,247
It was not good, at first, in 1789.

190
00:11:54,347 --> 00:11:57,023
And didn't deteriorate later. Not at all!

191
00:11:57,123 --> 00:12:00,000
Sieyès, a great thinker of the French Revolution,

192
00:12:00,100 --> 00:12:06,043
a top dog, not a minion (NT: similar to Madison in USA), in 1789:

193
00:12:06,143 --> 00:12:14,025
"Citizens who choose to have representatives

194
00:12:19,459 --> 00:12:21,184
[...]

195
00:12:21,184 --> 00:12:22,909
must give up making the law themselves.

196
00:12:23,009 --> 00:12:26,033
They don't have any particular desire to impose.

197
00:12:26,133 --> 00:12:27,962
If they were dictating wills,

198
00:12:28,062 --> 00:12:32,153
France wouldn't be this representative state, it would be democratic.

199
00:12:32,253 --> 00:12:35,181
The people, I repeat (Sieyès speaking),

200
00:12:35,281 --> 00:12:40,549
in a non-democratic country (and France cannot be), cannot speak,

201
00:12:40,649 --> 00:12:43,010
can only act through their representatives".

202
00:12:43,110 --> 00:12:44,959
He wasn't a democrat !

203
00:12:45,059 --> 00:12:48,807
He knew very well what a democracy was. I'll show you.

204
00:12:48,907 --> 00:12:52,040
Everyone knew, before 1789, Montesquieu, Aristote,

205
00:12:52,140 --> 00:12:56,971
that the election is aristocratic, thus, oligarchic.

206
00:12:57,071 --> 00:13:00,154
Aristotle said it explicitly, I'll skip the quote.

207
00:13:00,254 --> 00:13:02,589
Montesquieu as well, I'll skip it too.

208
00:13:02,689 --> 00:13:05,102
Look up online, I must save time.

209
00:13:05,202 --> 00:13:08,873
Let me stress out the two most important things:

210
00:13:08,973 --> 00:13:12,093
for 200 years of random appointment* in Athens…

211
00:13:12,193 --> 00:13:15,039
*(NT: citizens drawn from the society for responsibility)

212
00:13:15,139 --> 00:13:17,278
During which there were rich and poor.

213
00:13:17,378 --> 00:13:19,984
OK, I know they set aside slaves and women.

214
00:13:20,084 --> 00:13:21,972
That's not my point.

215
00:13:22,072 --> 00:13:24,617
I'm talking about the citizens ! The citizens of that time.

216
00:13:24,717 --> 00:13:29,131
For 200 years of random appointment, the poor governed, always.

217
00:13:29,231 --> 00:13:31,389
Always !

218
00:13:31,489 --> 00:13:35,820
Then, another historical example, no opinions, facts !

219
00:13:35,920 --> 00:13:39,136
200 years of random appointment: the poor governed.

220
00:13:39,236 --> 00:13:42,775
There were rich people. But they didn't govern.

221
00:13:42,875 --> 00:13:48,043
And in a "supposedly representative government" regime,

222
00:13:48,143 --> 00:13:52,999
not a democracy, for 200 years, it's always the rich who have governed.

223
00:13:53,099 --> 00:13:54,610
Always !

224
00:13:54,710 --> 00:14:00,016
Since random appointment gives power to the poor, to the 99%.

225
00:14:00,116 --> 00:14:03,984
Since the election empowers the 1%, the ultra rich,

226
00:14:04,084 --> 00:14:08,981
how long will the poor, the 99%, defend the election!?

227
00:14:09,081 --> 00:14:11,081
As if it were a sacred cow !

228
00:14:11,181 --> 00:14:15,839
It's untenable, the poor defending the election process,

229
00:14:15,939 --> 00:14:20,498
while random appointment would give them power back…

230
00:14:20,598 --> 00:14:24,807
Why do we value so much the election ?

231
00:14:24,907 --> 00:14:27,635
It's not due to reason,

232
00:14:27,735 --> 00:14:30,908
the facts show that it's not in our interest.

233
00:14:31,008 --> 00:14:32,555
But, we have myths.

234
00:14:32,655 --> 00:14:35,483
The "Republican" school has taugt us, since we are toddlers:

235
00:14:35,583 --> 00:14:37,972
elections = democracy = election, etc...

236
00:14:38,072 --> 00:14:40,301
Since the outset we have all believed it.

237
00:14:40,401 --> 00:14:43,597
We need to rehab from the lies of these robbers of power.

238
00:14:43,697 --> 00:14:46,015
Turn words the right side up.

239
00:14:46,115 --> 00:14:48,621
We are not in a democracy,

240
00:14:48,721 --> 00:14:51,561
we need a random drawing system

241
00:14:51,661 --> 00:14:54,615
To change things, we can't rely on those who are now in power.

242
00:14:54,715 --> 00:14:59,931
To change things, we can't rely on those who have the power right now.

243
00:15:00,031 --> 00:15:02,713
The solution won't come from them.

244
00:15:02,813 --> 00:15:05,970
It will come from normal people, simple people.

245
00:15:06,070 --> 00:15:08,121
People who don't want power.

246
00:15:08,221 --> 00:15:10,866
You must know this thought of Alain.

247
00:15:10,966 --> 00:15:14,282
A great thinker, I recommend him, who said:

248
00:15:14,382 --> 00:15:17,759
"The most visible sign of the righteous man,

249
00:15:17,859 --> 00:15:22,396
is that he doesn't want to govern others, at all.

250
00:15:22,496 --> 00:15:25,346
He seeks to govern only himself.

251
00:15:25,446 --> 00:15:30,933
This seals everything. In other words, the worst will govern."

252
00:15:31,033 --> 00:15:34,475
If righteous people don't want to govern,

253
00:15:34,575 --> 00:15:37,769
and if we give power, as in representative government,

254
00:15:37,869 --> 00:15:41,490
to those who want it, the worst will govern.

255
00:15:41,590 --> 00:15:46,393
This despairing representative trap - Alain is right -

256
00:15:46,493 --> 00:15:50,663
might also makes us overlook righteous men.

257
00:15:50,763 --> 00:15:53,103
We won't have them.

258
00:15:53,203 --> 00:15:57,971
But, we can escape from this trap, these pincers, I think.

259
00:15:58,071 --> 00:16:00,013
With a real democracy!

260
00:16:00,113 --> 00:16:04,672
By vesting power to anyone, the best of us are among "anyone",

261
00:16:04,772 --> 00:16:06,997
those who don't want power.

262
00:16:07,097 --> 00:16:08,760
Democracy we need !

263
00:16:08,860 --> 00:16:11,024
But we must want it.

264
00:16:11,124 --> 00:16:13,357
Don't wait for our elected officials to want it.

265
00:16:13,457 --> 00:16:14,903
They will never want it !

266
00:16:15,003 --> 00:16:17,788
True democracy would make them redondant.

267
00:16:17,888 --> 00:16:21,955
Random selection in Athens meant giving away a little bit of power,

268
00:16:22,055 --> 00:16:24,804
but not for long, and never twice in a row.

269
00:16:24,904 --> 00:16:27,427
With many controls, but no time to explain.

270
00:16:27,527 --> 00:16:31,536
Athenians were giving up a little bit of power,

271
00:16:31,636 --> 00:16:33,971
to keep the power to themselves !

272
00:16:34,071 --> 00:16:37,127
Randomly selected people weren't voting on the bills.

273
00:16:37,227 --> 00:16:41,031
They were police, justice, and enforced the law.

274
00:16:41,131 --> 00:16:43,987
They prepared the bills, because the Athenians,

275
00:16:44,087 --> 00:16:46,644
couldn't prepare them in the assembly.

276
00:16:46,744 --> 00:16:51,646
Representatives were weakened by random selection…

277
00:16:51,746 --> 00:16:53,354
Weakened !

278
00:16:53,454 --> 00:16:57,625
Thus, citizens were guaranteed to remain sovereign.

279
00:16:57,725 --> 00:17:00,907
Don't fear random selection, we would,

280
00:17:01,007 --> 00:17:04,032
all of us, be greatly empowered through random selection.

281
00:17:04,132 --> 00:17:07,690
Random selection implies that our representatives remain our servants,

282
00:17:07,790 --> 00:17:11,168
and can't become our masters.

283
00:17:13,005 --> 00:17:16,049
One last word…

284
00:17:18,024 --> 00:17:22,171
One word…

285
00:17:22,271 --> 00:17:27,027
Visit le-message.org, which was created by one of you.

286
00:17:27,127 --> 00:17:30,506
I think we should… Like viruses, as a grassroots movement…

287
00:17:30,606 --> 00:17:34,594
- don't expect anything from the media or the powerful -

288
00:17:34,694 --> 00:17:38,559
Let's spread the word among one another, on this principle:

289
00:17:38,659 --> 00:17:42,524
"don't elect the constituent assembly, select it randomly".

290
00:17:42,624 --> 00:17:44,980
Everything will follow from this.

291
00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:48,930
I think this idea is valid for the entire world.

292
00:17:49,030 --> 00:17:52,529
Thank you for listening.

293
